Default Lowered On Coils- Camber help

I'm about to be lowered on Megan EZ's with my stock 18's powder coated. On my previous car I was lowered on EZ's on 20's and had a J power front and rear camber kit and had no problems. All I care about is not wearing out my tires faster than necessary as well as maintaining proper handling. With that being said is both front/rear camber kit best? (07 250) If so what are the best brands deals for the set I should be looking for? sorry suspension is not my strong suit at all lol.

Thanks

Really, if you're not slamming the car, you'd be better off saving the $$ from buying all of the camber stuff and using it on other mods. Toe wears out tires MUCH faster than camber; and really dependant on the amount of your drop, the inner tire wear won't increase that much. I could still get 30k out of a 300 treadwear life tire with a -2.4 degree camber up front.

ive been preaching that forever, toe being off will wear out tires far faster than camber wear will. like Gville said, if you are not slamming out, camber arms really arent a necessity. natural camber alone can take care of most of it.
